Because she is learning a diferent way on doing the math but if you add 1\6 to 5\6 then that will be a total of 5/8 so thats why its like that.

Well,5/6 is closer to one than 5/8 is,just add 1/6+5/6 and then you get 1,adding 1/8 to 5/8 is only 6/8,so that's how you can tell how it is greater! Hope this helps your daughter!

Explain how the words term and coefficient are used in talking about the algebraic expression.
cupoosta [38]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

The <u>algebraic expressions</u> are composed of several elements: Terms, Coefficients, Signs, Variables and Exponents. In this case we will focus on the first two.

<u>The terms</u> are composed of sign, coefficient, variable and exponent. The terms are separated from each other by the plus sign (+) or the minus sign (-).

For example, in the following expression:

2x-3x

We have two terms separated by the negative sign (-):

2x is the first term

-3x is the second term

Now, <u>the coefficients</u> are the numbers that multiply the variable. <u>Note that if this coefficient is one (1) it is omitted .</u>

For example in the following expression, the variable is x:

2x-3x+x

2 is the coefficient of x in the first term

-3 is the coefficient of x in the second term

1 is the coefficient of x in the third term, <u>but is omitted </u>


In order to understand this in a better way, see the figure attached, where the algebraic expression is composed by one term.

Why do some quadratic graphs move left or right and others do not? Is there a correlation between this and them moving up and do

(x - 3)^2 is right 3  because it becames 0 at 3

x^2 +3 is up 3  because your just adding 3 units up

x^2 - 3 is down 3 because your just subtracting 3 units down
